Free, formerly host of BET's 106 & Park, will co-host the new Gospel Music Channel television network original series, "Bobby Jones Next Generation," along side Bobby Jones.
"Bobby Jones Next Generation" is an hour-long emerging artist showcase of musical performances and interviews with up-and-coming “undiscovered” performers. Gospel Music Channel, Atlanta-based Kingdom Come Productions and Dr. Jones will produce the new series.
"Bobby Jones Next Generation" will be seen Sunday nights at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT with the series premier set for Sunday, May 4th.
Before hosting BET’s 106 & Park, Free was a budding rapper having worked with Wyclef Jean Refugee Camp, Lenny Kravitz, and Pras. Most recently Free held a position as DJ at KKBT 100.3 The Beat in Los Angeles.
She will release her debut album later this spring. The album is produced by Missy Elliott, Rockwilder, Timbaland, Scott Storch, Pharrell Williams, Kanye West and Karma Productions just to name a “few!”
Bobby Jones has dominated Sunday programming as the host and executive producer of Bobby Jones Gospel, seen on BET since 1980; producer of Video Gospel on BET since 1989; host of the Bobby Jones Countdown, a syndicated radio show, and he is a recipient of a Grammy Award, a Dove Award, a NAACP Image Award and multiple Stella Awards.
